Living in Freedom


Book Description

It is amazing what God has done for us, how overwhelming this is, how unrestricted it is, and how it upsets every natural principle upon which we depend and naturally build our lives. In Living in Freedom, author James G. Groth shares an understanding of God's grace, the new covenant, and the role they play in our lives by exploring: - the current world situation and the impact it has on our lives; - the differences and purpose of the covenants and how they affect our lives today; - the problem of basing our lives on our concepts of good and evil; - the historical, conceptual, personal, and relational aspects of the new covenant; - the mixing the lifestyles of law and grace; and - the concept of forgiveness. Groth also considered what it means to be a new creation, to be born again, and the consequences which take us into a life of freedom, as well as what it means to live by the spirit rather than by the letter of the law. He examines 1 John 1:9 and explains it in context with the times, the struggle of cults, and in the context of Paul's letters. Living in Freedom addresses the true meaning of salvation and encourages Christians to walk in their faith to attain that salvation.
